Meta HN: Why is this account banned? (access_denied)

I looked through the submissions and comments history, and saw no reason why this person would be banned.

I'm a little disturbed by how opaque the process is. Someone tell the poor guy nobody can see his comments/submissions.

Try turning showdead on.

I do have it on, that's how I found access_denied. Otherwise, I would have never seen him/her.

Once I saw a perfectly reasonable comment dead, I digged into the comments and submissions, to the point where the ban occurred. I saw nothing notable whatsoever, access_denied's comments all seem fine to me. And yet he's been unheard an unreplied to for quite a long time. It's not a crime against humanity, but it isn't quite right.

You wouldnt happen to be access_denied would you? What with your recently created account and low karma.

Nope, I'm not access_denied. As you can see, access_denied has been making comments even after I had created my account.
